It is a bit sad this review as the flat deserves to be treated better than it is.
It is tired and some things need replacing. Chairs in the lounge have severe water damage. Apparently, the owner is aware but chooses to do nothing. On arrival I could not open the front door. Another resident told me it just needed a little manipulation and he then failed to open it. The lock needs either maintenance or changing. Internally things like toilet seats are discolored, not at all appealing. Bathroom floors and tiles needs attention and the kitchen needs updating. In terms of cleaning, this is difficult because as things are so tired it will be difficult to clean although we did wipe over the cupboards to remove coffee stains, I think. So some attention to detail by the cleaners may help. Badly chipped glasses did not help our overall impression. As I mentioned to your Dartmouth office , you are promoting this flat as a high-end product. In its current state it is not. At some point you must decide if you are prepared to risk your reputation because an owner will not spend on their property. Every year I stay at the Marina hotel a few times. We decided on an apartment to provide us with a bit more flexibility. This we got. Its just a shame about the condition of the property. You do not need to print this, but I would appreciate your thoughts.

The accommodation is perfect, plenty of space and amazing views from all the Estuary facing windows. This is our second stay because we love the area and this is one of the best apartments we have stayed at. The staff at Original Cottages were, as ever, very helpful. Spotlessly clean and comfortable lounge with three large bedrooms and would accomodate three couples. Our beds were comfortable and there was plenty of eating space in the kitchen. Sadly no necessities were provided on arrival and had to do a small emergency shopping to see us over until the morning. Good supermarkets are mostly within walking distance and a short walk down the hill behind the apartment there are some amazing eateries and the main shopping area. The slope down from the offloading area is quite steep and the front step a little difficult but once inside you will be well rewarded. The free parking pass for the Mayor's Carpark was most acceptable but we were lucky to be able to get the occasional space in a closed location.

We have stayed at Diddly Squat 8 times over the last 6 years and just returned after a two week stay.
A fantastic and very comfortable and homely apartment.However we have noticed over the last few years an increasing number of stains on carpets and furniture, the splash black in the en-suite didnât appear to have been cleaned very well, and the top shelf of the wardrobe was dirty, and there were very few coat hangers (good job we brought plenty ourselves). Also a number of the mugs were badly stained, we had to bleach them, and no hand towel or soap dispenser for upstairs loo (has been in the past) despite asking at the office during first week. We booked the second week after the first week and when speaking to head office I enquired whether there would be any discount for booking the second, I was promised on two occasions by two different I do ideals that they would enquire and get back to me. I had no contact from anybody. We love the Marina and Diddly Squat and hope comments will be taken on board. Thank you again for a memorable holiday in the delightful Dartmouth.

The cottage is in a very convenient location with stunning views across the river. As has been mentioned before parking is a bit of a nightmare for loading/unloading (we had to stop on double yellow lines) but that was the compromise to be able to stay in that location and the parking pass to a nearby car park was a welcome addition. The cottage has so much space and was very clean on arrival. It has very comfortable beds and we were grateful for the blackout blinds in the bedrooms. My only gripe was a lack of a welcome tray- nothing says 'welcome' more than a home baked cake or local biscuits, a pint of milk in the fridge and some basic items such as tea & coffee. I'll be honest this is the first place I've ever stayed where there has been literally nothing to welcome us after our journey. In spite of this, I would definitely recommend this property for its location and comfort.

On first impressions property looked as described.
However, having had a delay for two hours to check in due to COVID deep cleaning, we were disappointed to find it had not been cleaned very thoroughly. Also, as previous reviews mentioned and have still not been addressed such as, the showers remained inadequate, very limited basic items left for a welcome to a âLuxury Appartmentâ especially after being informed that the hotel spa facilities were not going to be available as advertised and no recompense from the owners as requested. A small token gesture would have been appreciated, but true to itâs name there was âDiddly Squat!â We are surprised that it is still being advertised as having use of these facilities, as this was one of the reasons we booked the property. If these issues had been addressed originally when mentioned, our stay would have met expectations.
